AIM: To observe the influence of the selective decontamination of the digestive tract (SDD) and caecosomy/colonic irrigation on gut endotoxin/bacteria translocation following acute severe pancreatitis (ASP). METHODS: Twenty three pigs weighing 16-22 kg were divided into four groups. Group I (n=5): sham-control; Group Ⅱ (n=6): ASP-control; Group Ⅲ (n=6): gntamicin [(8.55?10~5?5.70?10~4) units/time] and nystatin [(1.37?10~5?9.00?10~3) units/time] were fed orally every 8 h for 1 week before the induction of ASP; Group Ⅳ (n=6): caecostomy was performed before the induction of ASP. ASP was induced by infecting 1 mL/kg BW of combined solution of 5% sodium taurocholate and (8-10)?10~6 BAEE units/L of trypsin into pancreas via pancreatic duct. Systemic plasma endotoxin levels were quantified by the chromogenic limulus amebocyte lysate (LAL) technique. Specimens of tissue from mesenteriolum and mesocolon lymph nodes, lung, lymph nodes in hilus pulmonis, pancreas and the samples of both portal and systemic blood were collected before and at 72 h following ASP and cultured for aerobic as well as anaerobic bacteria growth. Positive specimens were subcultured and the bacteria identified by standard procedure. RESULTS: Preventive SDD not only effectively reduced the amount of bacteria in stool (P

The contents of adenosine, gastrodin, 4-hydroxybenzyl alcohol, 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde, parishin and sulfur dioxide residue were compared in differently-processed Gastrodiae Rhizoma to provide the basis for a reasonable processing method of Gastrodiae Rhizoma. The analysis was performed on a Merck Purospher STAR column (4.6 mm x 250 mm, 5 μm) with a mobile phase consisting of methanol and water (containing 0.1% formic acid) under gradient elution at a flow rate of 1.0 mL x min(-1). The eluates were detected at 270 nm, and the column temperature was 35°C. The content of adenosin, gastrodin, 4-hydroxybenzyl alcohol, 4-hydroxy-benzaldehyde and parishin in processing of boiling or sulfur-fumigated were lower than that of in processing of steaming. Furthermore, the sulfur dioxide residue of sulphur-fumigated groups exceed 400 mg x kg(-1). This stable and reliable method will contribute to the quality control of different processed Gastrodiae Rhizoma.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the relevance between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in CHRNA3-CHRNB4-CHRNA5 gene cluster and DNA damage levels in the coke oven workers.

METHODSA total of 309 male subjects from a steel plant in Northern China were divided into high exposure group (154 workers) and low exposure group (155 workers) according to the concentrations of plasma benzoapyrene-r-7, t-8, t-9, c-10-tetrahydrotetrol-albumin (BPDE-Alb) adducts. DNA damage levels of peripheral blood lymphocytes were examined by comet assay. Allelic discrimination of SNPs in CHRNA3-CHRNB4-CHRNA5 gene cluster were detected using Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry.

RESULTSThe Olive tail moment (OTM) (1.23 ± 1.05) of peripheral blood lymphocytes in the high exposure group was significantly higher than that (0.80 ± 1.07) in the low exposure group (P < 0.01). In the high exposure group, OTM (1.64 ± 0.17) of subjects with rs667282CC genotype was significantly higher than those (0.95 ± 0.13 or 1.09 ± 0.11) of subjects with rs667282CT genotype or rs667282TT + CT genotype (P < 0.01); OTM (1.60 ± 0.17) of subjects with GG genotype at rs12910984 site was significantly higher than those (0.92 ± 0.13 or 1.07 ± 0.10) of subjects with AG genotype or AG + AA genotype (P < 0.01); OTM (1.35 ± 0.17 or 1.64 ± 0.17) of the TA/TA or CG/CG diplotype carriers was significantly higher than that (0.89 ± 0.13) of TA/CG diplotype carriers (P < 0.05). However, the relevance between genotypes of these SNPs and the DNA damage levels was not found in the low exposure group.

CONCLUSIONThe rs667282CC genotype and rs12910984GG genotype on CHRNA3-CHRNB4-CHRNA5 gene cluster are associated with increased DNA damage levels in the high PAHs exposure group.
